Steve Evans: 'Sol Bamba ready to return against Wolverhampton Wanderers'

Leeds United manager Steve Evans has revealed that Sol Bamba is fit to return against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Thursday night.

The club captain has not featured for Leeds since a 3-0 victory over Yorkshire rivals Huddersfield Town at the start of November due to a fractured toe.

However, he has now been back in full training for a week and is in line to return to the starting XI for tomorrow night's visit to Molineux, where Leeds will be looking for just a second away league win in seven.

"Sol has come through a week of intensive training to link up with the rest of the squad this week," Evans told the club's official website.

"That's a big plus point for us as it boosts the competition for places in central defence and you always want to have your captain fully involved."

Leeds currently sit 18th in the Championship table, although victory on Thursday would see them leapfrog Wolves into 14th place.
